Karen Elson - Gold Dust Woman lyrics

Rock on, gold dust woman
Take your silver spoon, dig your grave
Heartless challenge
Pick your path and I'll pray

Wake up in the morning
See your sunrise loves to go down
Lousy lovers pick their prey
But they'll never cry out loud, cry out

But did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

Rock on, ancient queen
Follow those who pale in your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Up for sale

But did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?
But did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
Now tell me, is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

Pale shadow of a woman black widow
Ooh, pale shadow of a woman black widow
Ooh, pale shadow of a woman black widow

But did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?
But did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
Now tell me, is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

And go home and go home
